http://www.farmersmarketbars.com/wine-beer-bar.htm Farmer's Market's old-timey ambiance is made all the better with a beer buzz, and regulars at these two adjacent bars know this only too well. You can fill up on domestic brewskies and wines at 326, and more exotic fare at EB's, but the patio next to both is where you'll want to linger regardless of your poison. A chill sipper's oasis from the tourist-, family- and senior-packed chaos of other outdoor dining areas here at 3rd and Fairfax (not to mention the shopoholic swirl of The Grove), 326 and EB's do get lively during Happy Hour and during its holiday-themed parties, karaoke nights and band showcases. Check website for schedule. More >>

http://www.94thvannuys.com Perched on the edge of Van Nuys Airport, the 94th Aero Squadron is a restaurant and lounge where patrons can dine, drink, dance and listen to live music while watching planes land on a nearby runway. The dining room, bar and downstairs banquet rooms are a curious combination of elegant decor and kitschy war and aviation memorabilia. The tables and booths are covered with fine white linens and decorated with sumptuous bouquets of fresh flowers, while the walls are mounted with vintage recruitment posters, model planes and flight gear. In an unusual twist, headphones are installed at each booth so diners can listen in to live transmissions from the airport's control tower. Given the lounge's retro feel, the musical entertainment includes jazz and big-band revivalists, as well as more modern pop groups. Although the restaurant is kid friendly, with plenty of toys and artifacts to distract and inspire budding young pilots, the 94th Aero Squadron is above all a popular destination for couples to enjoy a traditional American-style meal and a drink before jetting off to some romantic getaway. The outdoor patio is an excellent place to get even closer to the adjoining runway and watch the wide variety of private aircraft and bigger jets landing and taking off. The restaurant specializes in high-end comfort food and such traditional favorites as burgers, steaks, filet mignon, seafood and pasta, along with house specialties like beer-cheese soup and crab-stuffed mushrooms. Happy hour occurs every Monday through Friday, from 4 to 7 p.m., and the Sunday champagne brunch buffet starts early at 9 a.m. The lavish banquet rooms are also available for private parties and weddings. There's free parking in the front lot. Full bar. All ages. More >>
http://www.theairlinerla.com This Eastside club takes flight several nights a week, offering gritty ambiance and great sounds. Some might call it a dive - albeit a very big, multilevel one - due to the sometimes sketchy scene outside, but its unfettered charm is well-suited to the raw sounds within. Inside, the vibe is friendly and totally unpretentious, with peeps seemingly more concerned about the musical offerings than with being seen. Rowdy live bands and rappers rouse the outdoor patio stage, and bangin' DJs fill up the big dance floor inside. More >>
http://www.akbarsilverlake.com Silver Lake's Moroccan-themed gay grotto is a long-running fave, as much for its stiff, reasonably priced drinks as for its vivacious, open-to-all atmosphere. When the adjacent dance room was added a few years ago, it became a full-fledged club. The dark and sweaty pit pumps and pulsates on weekends thanks to dynamic electro/disco mixes from local DJs. Expect a bevy of boho bi and gay grinders in the mix mostly on weekends, and local of all ilks during the week - even crafters (!), who take over with an early gathering every Wednesday. More >>
http://www.alexsbar.com The dim red lights and walls covered from top to bottom with framed portraits of bull fighters and luchadores manages to make Alex's Bar bizarrely lovable. This Long Beach favorite comes equipped with a full bar, pool table, and insanely amusing bathroom wall murals for your enjoyment. Not only does this venue host a slew of talented up-and-coming local musicians on a weekly basis, but it is also used as the set for filming the Fangtasia bar scenes in HBO's True Blood series. Cozy and kitschy with friendly bar service, this place will have your spirits high enough to consider shelling out three bucks to make memories in the custom photo booth hiding at the corner of the bar.

http://www.allstarlanesbowling.com All Star Lanes is an iconic Eagle Rock bowling alley, located on Eagle Rock Boulevard. The spacious mid-century interior doesn't look like it's been updated since the day it opened, but it holds 22 lanes for all levels of rollers, plus a bar in the back to keep things lively. There are pool tables and arcade games for the kids, plus the best glow-in-the-dark bowling you'll find anywhere. Lanes run $4/game on weeknights and $6 on weekends, but the cheap drinks ensure you won't end up spending too much. There's also an occasional free comedy show held near the bar, called the 4 & 20 show, which features some of the best comedians working in L.A. today. More >>
http://www.alpinevillagecenter.com Whether it’s the always-lively beer garden, the quaint shops that sell lederhosen and dirndls or the market and deli that specialize in European imports, even kitsch-phobic snobs have to succumb to Alpine Village’s faux Bavarian charm. They especially can’t deny its status as the largest host of Oktoberfest in L.A. (the website even has a daily countdown to that special time of year), which can get as rowdy as a soccer hooligan fight. The village stages other big celebrations throughout the year, from classic car shows to Mardi Gras. Whatever the occasion, revelers can count on fifteen beers on tap and good German and Eastern European grub. Offerings include pub snacks like giant pretzels and sausages in the oompah-blaring beer hall and classier fare, like plates of stuffed cabbage, wienerschnitzel and goulash in the two-level Alpine Village Inn restaurant, which is where you’ll find senior couples dancing the waltz, cha-cha or foxtrot. Don’t laugh. They know how to have a good time. More >>
